First things first, you need to be honest to yourself and consider all aspects of your present and future as an artist and as someone looking for a career in art. So before you rush out looking for and shopping for an art gallery, make sure to ask yourself some of the following questions:
• Is my art technically good?
• Is my art good enough to be represented and sold at an art gallery?

• Am I ready to sell my art at an art gallery?
• Do I have a cohesive body of art ready to display at an art gallery?
• Is my art sellable?
• Have I had success selling my art at other occasions, events, and venues that are not art gallery?
• Do I have the time and energy to supply the demand for an art gallery?
• Do I have a blog or a website that showcases and promotes my art as a portfolio?
• Do I have a professional-looking portfolio to offer to an art gallery?
